Using the XiL Approach for Brake Emission Investigations for Electrified Vehicles

Abstract

<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">The following paper aims to bring the topics of connected testing and emission measurements together. It is an introduction of connected bench testing with the aim to characterize brake particle emissions with a special focus on the impact of regenerative braking by simulating the real behavior of a premium BEV SUV.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">Such an approach combines the advantages of a brake dynamometer including an emission testing setup and a HiL setup to allow a much more precise testing of brake particle emissions under the impact of regen braking compared to the current recommendations of the Global Technical Regulation (GTR) on brake particle emissions.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">It is shown for the very first time, how interactions between the vehicle motion system work. The study includes one physical front brake corner as well as one physical rear brake corner. The regen functionalities are simulated by a real ESC-ECU which is the core of the HiL test setup. The presented results will deal with the simulation accuracy, the interactions between the powertrain and friction brake as well as the impact on brake emissions.</div></div>
